A 1R 1 WfYN A BEAR GROWLS Reported Purpose of Russia to Defeat Chinese Treaty A NEWSPAPER STATEMENT Hinting That Russia May Have Something to Say About Article Twelve Which Throws Open Manchurian Gates to American Commerce. St. Petersburg. Oct. 21. The Xovy-krai, of Port Arthur, commenting on the commercial treaty between- the United States and China, declares that article twelve, (opening the ports in Marjchuria to Pr.rted States -trade), strikes at the very heart of Russian interests in Manchuria, and says it is convinced the treaty will only bo ratified after material modifications as it affects a part of the territory, which by virtue of existing relations, is not free so long as Russia, has not definitely come to an understanding: with China regarding her rights. "Moreover," the Novykrai adds, ".prior to her present occupation', Russia had special treaty relations with China regarding th3s tenitcry. giving her the tight to build railways and guaranteeing that no similar privileges would be granted to others." RUSSIA AGREED. Washington, Oct. 21. The state department officials are disposed to attach little cred-er.ee to the reports that ccme from the far east or a purpose cn the part of Russia to defeat the operation cf the new treaty b?tv.-een the United States and China, so far as it relates to the opening of ports in Manchuria, to our commerce. It is pointeo? out that the reports are probably inspired by a desire to cause friction between the United States and Russia. As an act of courtesy and in: view of Russia's considerable Manchurian interests, a draft of this treaty befcre signature was unofficially submitted to the Russian agents in China, and by them communicated to the Russian foreign office. Through reliable channels the United Stales was assured that the treaty was not objectionable to Russia. The United States is entirely satisfied that the Chinese treaty when ratified by the United States senate will secure the objects cimed at, namely, the opening of Manchurian ports to American commerce on even" terms with itu'-. i.in cc-mreerce- ARTICLE XII. Washington, Oct. 21. The full text cf artiile twelve of the commercial treaty between the United Stales and China, referred to in the dispatch from St. Petersburg, fr.iows: "The Chinese government, having in 1SS0, opened the navigable inland waters of the empire to commerce and; all eteafti vessels, native or foreign, that may be registered for the purpose cf conveyance cf passengers and lawful merchandise, it is now agreed by the Chinese government that such commerce is opened to the vessels of every type belonging to the citizens, firms andi corporations of the United States and that they may freely engage in it on equal terms with those granted to the subjects of China or any power having relations with China. "China fuither agrees to foster all such intercourse and commerce by the adoption of such rules in addition to those already in force as shail promote the end' in view." SPOILED CHILDREN Usually Make Sickly Men and Women. The "spoiled" child usually makes a weak, sickly man or woman because such a youngster has its own way about diet and eats and drinks things that are unfitted for any stomach ai d sitkness results. "I was always a delicate spoiled child and wv parents used to let me drink coffee because I would cry tor it." says a Georgia young woman. "When I en tered school my nervousrfess increased and my parents thought it was due to my going to school, so they took me out again. But I did not get any better flnrl mv headaches rnr wr,-. nn,l ened me so that I was unfit for any duty. Sometimes I would go a whole day without any other nourishment than a cup of coffee. "Last spring I had a had attack of i the Grippe and when I recovered I found that coffee nauseated me so could not drink it and even a few swallows would cause a terrible burn - ing in my stomach. It was at this time that a friend who had beeji much bene- ; fited by the use of Postum suggested. that I try this food drink. I found it simply delicious and have used it ever since and the results speak for themselves. I have gained 12 nounds and my nerves are as steady as any one's. "I consider myself well and strong and I make it a point now to take a cup of Postum with a cracker or tw: as soon as I come home from school In the afternoon. Postum with cracn. ers or a biscuit makes my luncheon. It certainly saved my life for I know coffee would have killed me in time had I continued drinking it. "I have a young girl friend, a stenographer, who declares nothing strengthens and refreshes her like Postum and she has a little oil stove in her office and makes a cup of Postum at noontime. I have recommended thio wonderful beverage to many of my "friends who know what it has done for me." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

II., a second year class man of the Baltimore medical college, was killed. The opposing tev.ms had swayed back nd forth. over the field, bout evenly matched. Th navy by hard line bucking had passeu the ball to within ten yards of the visitors' goal when the latter hurled the mdshipmen back. The medics made gains of three and fi)Vt yards and had just lined up for another effort, when Lewin, right guard for the Baltmore medics fell to the ground. His limbs immediately became rigid. He was carried from the field and five minutes later he was pronounced dead by the attending physician. Dr. Henning, of Baltimore. The cause of death was given out as cardiac syncope. Tha body was takon to the naval emergency hospital where a postmortem examination was held. Neither team had scored when the sad ending cf the contest came. -o THE COMMERCIAL AFFAIRS The MarKet Disturbed by a Pittsburg BanK Failure. New York, Oct. 21.

The State Department More Satisfied Than Ever With the WorK or the AlasHan Boundary Commission. Washington, Oct. 21. The impression prevails at the state department today that all the details of tha Alaskan boundary commssion's decision will not be known until tha mails bring copies of the maps ami other documents actually laid before the commission. There is a slight gap in the outline description cf the boundary in the rrrtheirn portion which will probably be filed n Washngton when the full transcript is received-. Closer inspection cf the charts here in the light of Mr. Poster's dispatch of yesterday adds to the satisfaction of the officials, particularly as the commission actually extended the American title to large territory north of the Klehini river to the boundary line claimed by Secretary Evai ts a quarter of a century ago, instead of limiting it to that stream, the boundary tentatively fixed by the Hay-Pauncefote modus' Vivendi. The treaty requires expert surveyors to permanently fix the boundary line cn the general data furnished the commission and the state department intends to turn this work over to th"! coast survey and to prosecute it with all vigor to obviate further friction amor.g the miners clong the boundary. DISGUSTED CANADIANS. They Threaten Independence or Annexation to the United States. Vancouver. B. C. Oct. 21. Local feeling is very bitter over the award of the Alaskan boundary commission. There is much talk of annexation and of Canada becoming independent, business men being generally much dissatisfied at the pronounced British disregard of Canadian interests to please the United States. It is a matter of comment that the louoest .. among tne discontented are Englishmen residing here. Many of these hay that Canada will never achieve her greatest possibilities until she becomes a part of the United States. Rev. Rlliott S. Rowe, the leading Mfthod'St minister of r.ritish Columbia, and who with Chief Justice Hunter constituted the labor commission which sat this summer, in an interview here tnda-." paid: "I am a Britisher and 1 have alwTys been a Britisher, but if Orr-at Britain is to hand Canada over piecemeal to the United States. I say let us join the American republic also. By doing so now we are large enough, populous enough and important enough to have something to say regarding the terms of such annexation and also would be potent enough to have something to say In the affairs of the republic of which we would form a part. But if we wait until our best and richest territory is given away we shall simply be absorbed. It looks to me as if Canada had won the case and lost the territory." Mayor Neelands of Vancouver thinks that the Alaska award may lead to the establishment of Canada as an inde pendent nation. o BANKERS ARE DIVIDED On the Subject of Engaging in Fidelty Insurance Business. San Francisco Calif.. Oct. 21. Standing in the midst of stage setting kuvishly adorned with the choicest of California llowers and greenery and drapings of the national emblem, President Campbell Hardy, this morning called to order in the' California theatre the twenty-ninth annual convention cf the American, Bankers' association. The attendance, in view of the small numbers at the section meet-ngs yesterday, was highly pleasing to the officials of the association. The lower floor to well filled and many delegates were in the upper galleries. The opening session was enlivened by a very spirited controversy on the question of the association branching out into the Fidelity Insurance business for the purpose of bonding employes and the issue was made all the more interesting by the presentat!on of divers reports o:i the subject, tha executive council reporting against adoption of the proposed plan and the Fidelity Insurance commttee advocating the early sanctioning' cf ,such a scheme.

Callahan Made Good Showing Against Featherweight Champion. Philadelphia. Oct. 21. Champion Young Corbett and Tom Callahan, th? latter of this city, fought six rounds tonight at the National Athletic club in which Corbett finally got the better of the go after a hard contest. The fighters were in excellent condition for the battle. . Although Corbett forced the fightine at all times. Callahan had the better of the first four rounds. Corbett had much difficulty in landing. Nearly every time he went after Callahan the latter would meet him with a straight left or a right-handed uppercut. In the third round Callahan made Corbett's nose bleed. There was no choice between the men in the fifth round, which w.is stubbornly fought. The sixth, however, was all Corbet t's. Callahan slipped and in regaining his feet Corbett struck hir.i a terrible blow-on the jugular which almost knocked Callahan out.

Boston, Mass., Oct. 21. The new battleship Missouri, steered by Captain House, toilay proved herself the queen of the seas for battleships in her class in a speed trial trip over the Cape Ann course with weather conditions of a handicapping nature. Steaming over a course of thirty-three nautical miles and return the battleship made the trial in three hours 39 minutes and 24Vi seconds, an average speed of 18.05 knots per hour, which, with tidal corrections greatly in her favor, it is believed, will advance the average speed to 1S.22, a new-world's record for battleships. ROASTS REPORTERS! They Are Fired Bodily From Dowie's Meeting Elijah II May "Restore" Greater New Yorit But Not the "Yellow Scoundrels of the Press." New York, Oct. 21. Dr. Dowie called for special prayors at the early meeting in Madison Square Garden today fcr those of his following who are ill.

When the other 20.000 found themselves shut out the wildest dis- ! order prevailed and the police. 400 strong were for a time utterly unable to cope with the mad rush of the crowd. Mct ant women were knocked down and trampled on, and many nar- j lowly escaped death in the crushing.

San Francisco, Oct. 21. The steamer Spokane brought to this port this evening four survivors of the wrecked steamer South Portland, who were picked up at noon yesterday about fifteen miles south of Cape-Bianco, and twelve miles off shore. They were found clinging to a rude raft and were all but exhausted when rescued. Their names were: Arthur Havens, second officer; Chas. Blomburg, seaman: F. Johnson, seaman, and Ole Glunderson, seaman', s The list of the missing ones of the crew a.s previously printed does not contain the names of the above. This error is probably due to the fact that just before sailing some substitutions in the crew were made. Eight other men who were on the raft with the above survivors whenit left the South-Portland succombed and sank as their frail support was cast about by the waves. Their names are not known by tho?e who were saved. Several hours after these men were taken on board the Spokane the starboard lifebor.t of the wrecked vessel in which seven or eight men left the sinking steamer was seen floating, empty, on the ocean. It is now believed that all of passengers and crew not already counted for have perished. the ac- WHAT IS AN OATH? The Question Before the Court-Martial. Colorado Denver, Cclo... Oct. 21 The general court marti il which is at present hearing the case against General Chase, spent most of the time this morning in executive session considering the question r.f a legal oath. F. W. Mc-Klroy, of Cripple Creek, whose name appears in the habeas corpus return made by General Chase, which forms the basis of the perjury charge against him. testified that the sigr-ture to the return was fc'isi butMc-F-lroy also Ftated that there was no ceremony of swearing to the signature and also that General Chase raised his hand and asked McF.'lroy if he wished to swear him. McElroy, however, according to his own Evidence, waived this requirement. Attorneys for General Chase take the ground that the essentials of an oath i'ucli as perjury could' be predicated upon are lacking. Keecss was taken with the matter pending. At the afternoon session the court requested the attorneys to file briefs on questions and th-?n oJjourned till tomorrow. AFRAID OF SAN ANTONE. Tfouston, Texas. Oct. 21.

Senator William A. Clark, president of the United Verde & Pacific railway, issued a circular on the 17th Inst., announcing the appointment of H. J. Allen as general nraager cf the road, vice Joseph L. Gircux, resigned. Mr. Giroux goes tc Mexco, to engag? in otlter business. The United Verde & Pacific! runs from the United Verde mine (Jerome) to Jerome Junction, on the Santa Fp, Prescott & Phcenix, a distance of twenty-seven miles. The appointment cf Mr. Allen became effective October 1, according to President Clark's circular. For several years Mr. Adams has been Senator Clark's financial manager and confidential representative in Arizona, and has had general charge of the great United Verde mine and smelting plant. The management of the railroad' naturally falls ': him- It may be taken for granted that he will make the same success cf the United Verde & Pacific thpt he has hadi -'rit'.i -the United Verde mine. He has a rare faculty for "getting on" wth working-men, and is a business man of unusual sagacity. LIEUTENANT OF RANGERS William D. Allison Appointed to Succeed Lieutenant Foster. Governor Brodie yesterday appointed Sergeant William D. Allison of the Arizona Rangers lieutenant of that organization; to succeed Lieutenant Foster, who resigned to accept the appointment of deputy United States marshal. The appointment was made on the recommendation of Captain Thomas Iiynning of the rangers. The new lieutenant has a long and good record as a peace officer in this territory. Texas and New Mexico. He-was sheriff of Midland county, Texas, for ten years. He was first sergeant of the Texas Rangers under the famous Captain Hughes for one enlistment of two years. He was inspector of the Texas Cattle Raisers' association for three years and was deputy sheriff of Chavez county, X. M. He enlisted in the Arizona Rangers last April and was soon appointed to be sergeant. The people of Willcox and Pearce have been engaged in trying to detach him from the service that they might procure his appointment as constable of one or the other of those precincts. The members of the rangers all like him and have confidence in him. Most of the cattlemen in thJ southern part of the territory know him and of the work he performed in Texas. Governor Brodie in making the appointment is pursuing a policy he entered upon from the beginning, of promoting those members of the rangers who have shown themselves to be deserving. That policy will be adhered to through his administration, as he believes it to be the best for the efficiency of the organization.

SSL - HEADS KIMBLE The first Fruits of General Brlstow's Report REMOVAL OF EMPLOYES Some Guilty of CrooKedness, Others of Extravagance and Others of Incompetency The Fall of Others Will LiKely Follow. Washington, Oct. 21. Postmaster General' Payne today removed from office Michael W. Louis, superintendent of supplies of the postofnee department; Louis Kempner. chief of the registry division of the third assistant postmaster general's office, and C. B. Jerry ,a $300 clerk in the; lwst-o(Tl e department, and directed the postmaster at New York to remove Ottc Weiss, a clerk. These removals are the first results " of Fc-urth. Assistant Postmaster General Bristow's report on the irregularities in the postofliee department. Information' of-the contemplated discharges did! not leak out at the da- . j partment until after 4 o'clock and. at 4:30 the postmaster general macL? an. official anncur.cement of his action as follows: "Michael W. Loui has been removed frcm the office of the superintendent of supplies because the recent investi- gationi shows that he influenced' the awarding of contracts for supplies to favored bidders; that he has been extravagant and wasteful in the admin'-Istration cf his office, and that he has paid excessive prices for supplies to favored contractors. "Louis Kempner, superintendent of the registry system, bus been removed fcr incompetent and negligent administration; for wasteful and declared extravagance in' sending expensive manifold registration bo!oks to a large number of smatl fourth-class postofnees: and for violating the revenue laws by a systemi of petty smuggling. "C. B. Terry, a clerk in the division cf supplies has been removed for m;ak-irg false: affidavits; attempting to obtain money from clerks und-er the guise that he could influence thsir promotion and for general inefficiency." The postmaster general also staled that thci postmaster at New York had been - directed to remo ve Otto Weis, cicrk in the" New York j;ostoffiee foi collecting moreey from, clerks' 'toin--fluer.ee legislation- and to procure promotions.In rnply to questions Mr. Payne'sald the discharges were the result of disclosures made by th2 Bristow report. "I have read' the report,'1 he said, "and anv free to say that my action tolay was the result of its perusal." He declined to say whether there w-r.uM be other removal's as a result of the report but "it is understood! tbit that while a few others may follow-there will not be any wholesale dismissals. It is1 staled that there are three or four other employes u"ii whose conduct there is some refleoiwin and whose cases hang in the balance. They were not implicated so much as those whose cases were acted upon today, ar.'3 some c them may remain permanently in the postal service, though possibly not in their present positions. Weiss .the New York clerk, who has been reMeved.. is said to have enjoyed confidential relations with George W. Beavers, late superintendent of the is charged) with having acted as a medium through which other clerks in the New York postofflce were communicated with. Terry is from Indiana. He was temporary clerk in the pe-toffice department and was after irds removed. He made charges that .ie had; been discharged from his position- by John M. Masten, then chief clerk of the first' assistant postmaster general, but now assistant superintendent of the railway mail service, because he had refused to giv? money to Masten for his retention' and the president directed his reinstatement.

A 1R 1 WfYN A BEAR GROWLS Reported Purpose of Russia to Defeat Chinese Treaty A NEWSPAPER STATEMENT Hinting That Russia May Have Something to Say About Article Twelve Which Throws Open Manchurian Gates to American Commerce. St. Petersburg. Oct. 21. The Xovy-krai, of Port Arthur, commenting on the commercial treaty between- the United States and China, declares that article twelve, (opening the ports in Marjchuria to Pr.rted States -trade), strikes at the very heart of Russian interests in Manchuria, and says it is convinced the treaty will only bo ratified after material modifications as it affects a part of the territory, which by virtue of existing relations, is not free so long as Russia, has not definitely come to an understanding: with China regarding her rights. "Moreover," the Novykrai adds, ".prior to her present occupation', Russia had special treaty relations with China regarding th3s tenitcry. giving her the tight to build railways and guaranteeing that no similar privileges would be granted to others." RUSSIA AGREED. Washington, Oct. 21. The state department officials are disposed to attach little cred-er.ee to the reports that ccme from the far east or a purpose cn the part of Russia to defeat the operation cf the new treaty b?tv.-een the United States and China, so far as it relates to the opening of ports in Manchuria, to our commerce. It is pointeo? out that the reports are probably inspired by a desire to cause friction between the United States and Russia. As an act of courtesy and in: view of Russia's considerable Manchurian interests, a draft of this treaty befcre signature was unofficially submitted to the Russian agents in China, and by them communicated to the Russian foreign office. Through reliable channels the United Stales was assured that the treaty was not objectionable to Russia. The United States is entirely satisfied that the Chinese treaty when ratified by the United States senate will secure the objects cimed at, namely, the opening of Manchurian ports to American commerce on even" terms with itu'-. i.in cc-mreerce- ARTICLE XII. Washington, Oct. 21. The full text cf artiile twelve of the commercial treaty between the United Stales and China, referred to in the dispatch from St. Petersburg, fr.iows: "The Chinese government, having in 1SS0, opened the navigable inland waters of the empire to commerce and; all eteafti vessels, native or foreign, that may be registered for the purpose cf conveyance cf passengers and lawful merchandise, it is now agreed by the Chinese government that such commerce is opened to the vessels of every type belonging to the citizens, firms andi corporations of the United States and that they may freely engage in it on equal terms with those granted to the subjects of China or any power having relations with China. "China fuither agrees to foster all such intercourse and commerce by the adoption of such rules in addition to those already in force as shail promote the end' in view." SPOILED CHILDREN Usually Make Sickly Men and Women. The "spoiled" child usually makes a weak, sickly man or woman because such a youngster has its own way about diet and eats and drinks things that are unfitted for any stomach ai d sitkness results. "I was always a delicate spoiled child and wv parents used to let me drink coffee because I would cry tor it." says a Georgia young woman. "When I en tered school my nervousrfess increased and my parents thought it was due to my going to school, so they took me out again. But I did not get any better flnrl mv headaches rnr wr,-. nn,l ened me so that I was unfit for any duty. Sometimes I would go a whole day without any other nourishment than a cup of coffee. "Last spring I had a had attack of i the Grippe and when I recovered I found that coffee nauseated me so could not drink it and even a few swallows would cause a terrible burn - ing in my stomach. It was at this time that a friend who had beeji much bene- ; fited by the use of Postum suggested. that I try this food drink. I found it simply delicious and have used it ever since and the results speak for themselves. I have gained 12 nounds and my nerves are as steady as any one's. "I consider myself well and strong and I make it a point now to take a cup of Postum with a cracker or tw: as soon as I come home from school In the afternoon. Postum with cracn. ers or a biscuit makes my luncheon. It certainly saved my life for I know coffee would have killed me in time had I continued drinking it. "I have a young girl friend, a stenographer, who declares nothing strengthens and refreshes her like Postum and she has a little oil stove in her office and makes a cup of Postum at noontime.

II., a second year class man of the Baltimore medical college, was killed. The opposing tev.ms had swayed back nd forth. over the field, bout evenly matched. Th navy by hard line bucking had passeu the ball to within ten yards of the visitors' goal when the latter hurled the mdshipmen back. The medics made gains of three and fi)Vt yards and had just lined up for another effort, when Lewin, right guard for the Baltmore medics fell to the ground. His limbs immediately became rigid. He was carried from the field and five minutes later he was pronounced dead by the attending physician. Dr. Henning, of Baltimore. The cause of death was given out as cardiac syncope. Tha body was takon to the naval emergency hospital where a postmortem examination was held. Neither team had scored when the sad ending cf the contest came. -o THE COMMERCIAL AFFAIRS The MarKet Disturbed by a Pittsburg BanK Failure. New York, Oct. 21.

The State Department More Satisfied Than Ever With the WorK or the AlasHan Boundary Commission. Washington, Oct. 21. The impression prevails at the state department today that all the details of tha Alaskan boundary commssion's decision will not be known until tha mails bring copies of the maps ami other documents actually laid before the commission. There is a slight gap in the outline description cf the boundary in the rrrtheirn portion which will probably be filed n Washngton when the full transcript is received-. Closer inspection cf the charts here in the light of Mr. Poster's dispatch of yesterday adds to the satisfaction of the officials, particularly as the commission actually extended the American title to large territory north of the Klehini river to the boundary line claimed by Secretary Evai ts a quarter of a century ago, instead of limiting it to that stream, the boundary tentatively fixed by the Hay-Pauncefote modus' Vivendi. The treaty requires expert surveyors to permanently fix the boundary line cn the general data furnished the commission and the state department intends to turn this work over to th"! coast survey and to prosecute it with all vigor to obviate further friction amor.g the miners clong the boundary. DISGUSTED CANADIANS. They Threaten Independence or Annexation to the United States. Vancouver. B. C. Oct. 21. Local feeling is very bitter over the award of the Alaskan boundary commission. There is much talk of annexation and of Canada becoming independent, business men being generally much dissatisfied at the pronounced British disregard of Canadian interests to please the United States. It is a matter of comment that the louoest .. among tne discontented are Englishmen residing here. Many of these hay that Canada will never achieve her greatest possibilities until she becomes a part of the United States. Rev. Rlliott S. Rowe, the leading Mfthod'St minister of r.ritish Columbia, and who with Chief Justice Hunter constituted the labor commission which sat this summer, in an interview here tnda-." paid: "I am a Britisher and 1 have alwTys been a Britisher, but if Orr-at Britain is to hand Canada over piecemeal to the United States. I say let us join the American republic also. By doing so now we are large enough, populous enough and important enough to have something to say regarding the terms of such annexation and also would be potent enough to have something to say In the affairs of the republic of which we would form a part. But if we wait until our best and richest territory is given away we shall simply be absorbed. It looks to me as if Canada had won the case and lost the territory." Mayor Neelands of Vancouver thinks that the Alaska award may lead to the establishment of Canada as an inde pendent nation. o BANKERS ARE DIVIDED On the Subject of Engaging in Fidelty Insurance Business. San Francisco Calif.. Oct. 21. Standing in the midst of stage setting kuvishly adorned with the choicest of California llowers and greenery and drapings of the national emblem, President Campbell Hardy, this morning called to order in the' California theatre the twenty-ninth annual convention cf the American, Bankers' association. The attendance, in view of the small numbers at the section meet-ngs yesterday, was highly pleasing to the officials of the association. The lower floor to well filled and many delegates were in the upper galleries. The opening session was enlivened by a very spirited controversy on the question of the association branching out into the Fidelity Insurance business for the purpose of bonding employes and the issue was made all the more interesting by the presentat!on of divers reports o:i the subject, tha executive council reporting against adoption of the proposed plan and the Fidelity Insurance commttee advocating the early sanctioning' cf ,such a scheme.

Callahan Made Good Showing Against Featherweight Champion. Philadelphia. Oct. 21. Champion Young Corbett and Tom Callahan, th? latter of this city, fought six rounds tonight at the National Athletic club in which Corbett finally got the better of the go after a hard contest. The fighters were in excellent condition for the battle. . Although Corbett forced the fightine at all times. Callahan had the better of the first four rounds. Corbett had much difficulty in landing. Nearly every time he went after Callahan the latter would meet him with a straight left or a right-handed uppercut. In the third round Callahan made Corbett's nose bleed. There was no choice between the men in the fifth round, which w.is stubbornly fought. The sixth, however, was all Corbet t's. Callahan slipped and in regaining his feet Corbett struck hir.i a terrible blow-on the jugular which almost knocked Callahan out.

Boston, Mass., Oct. 21. The new battleship Missouri, steered by Captain House, toilay proved herself the queen of the seas for battleships in her class in a speed trial trip over the Cape Ann course with weather conditions of a handicapping nature. Steaming over a course of thirty-three nautical miles and return the battleship made the trial in three hours 39 minutes and 24Vi seconds, an average speed of 18.05 knots per hour, which, with tidal corrections greatly in her favor, it is believed, will advance the average speed to 1S.22, a new-world's record for battleships. ROASTS REPORTERS! They Are Fired Bodily From Dowie's Meeting Elijah II May "Restore" Greater New Yorit But Not the "Yellow Scoundrels of the Press." New York, Oct. 21.

When the other 20.000 found themselves shut out the wildest dis- ! order prevailed and the police. 400 strong were for a time utterly unable to cope with the mad rush of the crowd.

San Francisco, Oct. 21. The steamer Spokane brought to this port this evening four survivors of the wrecked steamer South Portland, who were picked up at noon yesterday about fifteen miles south of Cape-Bianco, and twelve miles off shore. They were found clinging to a rude raft and were all but exhausted when rescued. Their names were: Arthur Havens, second officer; Chas. Blomburg, seaman: F. Johnson, seaman, and Ole Glunderson, seaman', s The list of the missing ones of the crew a.s previously printed does not contain the names of the above. This error is probably due to the fact that just before sailing some substitutions in the crew were made. Eight other men who were on the raft with the above survivors whenit left the South-Portland succombed and sank as their frail support was cast about by the waves. Their names are not known by tho?e who were saved. Several hours after these men were taken on board the Spokane the starboard lifebor.t of the wrecked vessel in which seven or eight men left the sinking steamer was seen floating, empty, on the ocean. It is now believed that all of passengers and crew not already counted for have perished. the ac- WHAT IS AN OATH? The Question Before the Court-Martial. Colorado Denver, Cclo... Oct. 21 The general court marti il which is at present hearing the case against General Chase, spent most of the time this morning in executive session considering the question r.f a legal oath. F. W. Mc-Klroy, of Cripple Creek, whose name appears in the habeas corpus return made by General Chase, which forms the basis of the perjury charge against him. testified that the sigr-ture to the return was fc'isi butMc-F-lroy also Ftated that there was no ceremony of swearing to the signature and also that General Chase raised his hand and asked McF.'lroy if he wished to swear him. McElroy, however, according to his own Evidence, waived this requirement. Attorneys for General Chase take the ground that the essentials of an oath i'ucli as perjury could' be predicated upon are lacking. Keecss was taken with the matter pending. At the afternoon session the court requested the attorneys to file briefs on questions and th-?n oJjourned till tomorrow. AFRAID OF SAN ANTONE. Tfouston, Texas. Oct. 21.

Senator William A. Clark, president of the United Verde & Pacific railway, issued a circular on the 17th Inst., announcing the appointment of H. J. Allen as general nraager cf the road, vice Joseph L. Gircux, resigned. Mr. Giroux goes tc Mexco, to engag? in otlter business. The United Verde & Pacific! runs from the United Verde mine (Jerome) to Jerome Junction, on the Santa Fp, Prescott & Phcenix, a distance of twenty-seven miles. The appointment cf Mr. Allen became effective October 1, according to President Clark's circular. For several years Mr. Adams has been Senator Clark's financial manager and confidential representative in Arizona, and has had general charge of the great United Verde mine and smelting plant. The management of the railroad' naturally falls ': him- It may be taken for granted that he will make the same success cf the United Verde & Pacific thpt he has hadi -'rit'.i -the United Verde mine. He has a rare faculty for "getting on" wth working-men, and is a business man of unusual sagacity. LIEUTENANT OF RANGERS William D. Allison Appointed to Succeed Lieutenant Foster. Governor Brodie yesterday appointed Sergeant William D. Allison of the Arizona Rangers lieutenant of that organization; to succeed Lieutenant Foster, who resigned to accept the appointment of deputy United States marshal. The appointment was made on the recommendation of Captain Thomas Iiynning of the rangers. The new lieutenant has a long and good record as a peace officer in this territory. Texas and New Mexico. He-was sheriff of Midland county, Texas, for ten years. He was first sergeant of the Texas Rangers under the famous Captain Hughes for one enlistment of two years. He was inspector of the Texas Cattle Raisers' association for three years and was deputy sheriff of Chavez county, X. M. He enlisted in the Arizona Rangers last April and was soon appointed to be sergeant. The people of Willcox and Pearce have been engaged in trying to detach him from the service that they might procure his appointment as constable of one or the other of those precincts. The members of the rangers all like him and have confidence in him. Most of the cattlemen in thJ southern part of the territory know him and of the work he performed in Texas. Governor Brodie in making the appointment is pursuing a policy he entered upon from the beginning, of promoting those members of the rangers who have shown themselves to be deserving. That policy will be adhered to through his administration, as he believes it to be the best for the efficiency of the organization.

Louis, superintendent of supplies of the postofnee department; Louis Kempner. chief of the registry division of the third assistant postmaster general's office, and C. B. Jerry ,a $300 clerk in the; lwst-o(Tl e department, and directed the postmaster at New York to remove Ottc Weiss, a clerk. These removals are the first results " of Fc-urth. Assistant Postmaster General Bristow's report on the irregularities in the postofliee department. Information' of-the contemplated discharges did! not leak out at the da- . j partment until after 4 o'clock and. at 4:30 the postmaster general macL? an. official anncur.cement of his action as follows: "Michael W. Loui has been removed frcm the office of the superintendent of supplies because the recent investi- gationi shows that he influenced' the awarding of contracts for supplies to favored bidders; that he has been extravagant and wasteful in the admin'-Istration cf his office, and that he has paid excessive prices for supplies to favored contractors. "Louis Kempner, superintendent of the registry system, bus been removed fcr incompetent and negligent administration; for wasteful and declared extravagance in' sending expensive manifold registration bo!oks to a large number of smatl fourth-class postofnees: and for violating the revenue laws by a systemi of petty smuggling. "C. B. Terry, a clerk in the division cf supplies has been removed for m;ak-irg false: affidavits; attempting to obtain money from clerks und-er the guise that he could influence thsir promotion and for general inefficiency." The postmaster general also staled that thci postmaster at New York had been - directed to remo ve Otto Weis, cicrk in the" New York j;ostoffiee foi collecting moreey from, clerks' 'toin--fluer.ee legislation- and to procure promotions.In rnply to questions Mr. Payne'sald the discharges were the result of disclosures made by th2 Bristow report. "I have read' the report,'1 he said, "and anv free to say that my action tolay was the result of its perusal." He declined to say whether there w-r.uM be other removal's as a result of the report but "it is understood! tbit that while a few others may follow-there will not be any wholesale dismissals. It is1 staled that there are three or four other employes u"ii whose conduct there is some refleoiwin and whose cases hang in the balance. They were not implicated so much as those whose cases were acted upon today, ar.'3 some c them may remain permanently in the postal service, though possibly not in their present positions. Weiss .the New York clerk, who has been reMeved.. is said to have enjoyed confidential relations with George W.
